what an awesome weekend! i had to run my hoosier qtp's which are now coming off the rims and going into the garbage, lol! they blow large!

anyhow friday night we get to Grand Bend, unload car, setup tent, and get beer on ice! lol!

head up get in line and make some passes.

first pass, **** 60', 12.0 @ 124.80

second pass 10.88 @ 126.xx on a 1.53 60'

third pass 10.89 @ 125.8 on a 1.54 60'

hot lapped, 4th pass 10.82 @ 126.16

i can't wait to chuck those tires, on the upside i won't need DOT tires until next season

:shock: Nice job man.. :bow: :thumb:

nice job. keep it up.

nice job...cant wait to see some heavy dosage passes!

well the next time the car is run on motor will be at Thunder shootout! that is going to be awesome! a track below seea level with some awesome air and great traction!

thanks again!

:cool:

everyone was getting p.b's! :D

I'm hoping at that below sea level track you can shave quite a bit off the N/A time.

i too am hoping for that! we shall see how fast I can get her down the track! :cool:

nice

Nice job man, can not wait till Thunder to see that car run :)

cool you are going to be there as well! be sure to stop over for a beer after the racing on saturday night! we will be camping overnight!

Very nice man. Can't wait to see that thing at the thunder race. Just a little more and you got the "record"...heheheh. The weather is starting to turn towards the good side down here already. We usually have around 0 DA for the shootout and hit like 800-1000 below about a week later. Maybe that weather will get here sooner this year. :cool: We still gonna line em up huh. that should be a vid to remember. :eek:

We are starting to reassemble mine. Maybe a week or so and I should be ready to go. :D

Great #"s.. :) glad to see it run's great N/A as well.. :)

hell yeah we can line'em up! all i ask is that it is a sportsman tree. i couldn't cut a light on a pro tree to save my life! lmao!!!!! that would be a memorable race, but i have a feeling that you are gonna have something to surprise lot of people, tell me one thing what gear is in that thing now. i may stand a chance on motor, i would guess you slapped a 4.11 in to it, since you plan on spraying the car.

also on your 11.0 pass, what was your 1/8th mile time....or is that top secret ;)

we can run whatever tree you want. I want it to be more of a race of the cars instead of who cuts the best light. I still have a 4.71gear in it...will prolly be 4.57s for the race since I fully expect me to have too much gear on motor now. :D I'm still gonna be set up for motor..the nitrous stuff is just for kicks. On that 11.0 pass babying it out of the hole..I mean really walkin it out and hitting the jug about 40 ft out ..if I remember right it was a 6.6 or low 6.7 8th at mid 10x mph. I have nothing for you on the jug :bow: I think it was on a low 10 at 134ish run..but its all speculation since i was out of gear way before the 1/4 mile. When I let off and kept it in gear coasting I crossed the 1/4 traps about 20 mph below my 8th mile traps..heheheh..too funny. I may pick up another 9" 3rd member and throw some nitrous gears in it to have fun in the summer or something.

But yes..I do hope to have a little suprise for people at the shootout. I can't compete with the full out auto race cars...but hopefully they will know a little red lt1 6 speed was in the race..heheheh.

looking better and better...Ya still teasing everybody though ....LOL

Tim,

cool then we can run on saturday! :) i will bucking for a new pb on motor. maybe we can make best 2/3 :) loser gets to drink some molson canadian :) lmao!!!! heck so does the winner :D

Joe,

the gig is up this saturday, i am hoping for some clean passes and a track that is prepped really really well! fingers crossed, otherwise the weather looks like it is supposed to be pretty nice! i been'a'waitin' all year for this! :cool:

i'll be sitting by the puter' for this one :)

Win or loose ...I'm drinking your beer..lol :p Best 2out of 3..sounds fun to me...but don't forget to leave us some time to whup up on some of the ls1 weirdos. Can't wait to get 2"fairly fast" lt1 6 speeds yanking wheels and slamming gears down the track. My poor little 355 gonna have its tongue hangin out before the weekends over. Hopefully this year I will come home with some white time slips. ;)

keep in mind Roman is bringing his all motor monster! if you line up against him it will be a tough win! stick or auto, lmao!!!

yea..I know he is coming. I'm glad to have a 6 speed brethern runnin in modified stock..ls1 or lt1..we have to stick together. I don't know if I will have anything for him..only time will tell. May have to let jason take care of him friday night...heheheh.

Friday should be fun! :D

Jason

what is there friday night t'n't?

also is too cold to tent it down there? we were just going to camp? uh oh....i may be sleeping in my truck! damn and for 3 nights! :cry:

will trade Cold Canadian beer for warm bunk! lmao!!! ;)

nah..people will be camping all over the place..they did last year and were fine. I would bring a nice thick sleeping bag just in case. I think the worse you will see is mid 40s that time of year. I was walking around at night last year with just a light jacket..the year before it was really cold though. You canadians should be use to the cold.

Wow. That's movin'. :bow: Keep it up, can't wait for the vids.

i don't mind the cool weather, just the cold weather! it was cold this past weekend sleeping at the track! it was in the 40's!!! sorry but for sleeping outside that is frickin' cold!!! then again, i borrowed a nice summer tent, it had screens on two sides of it! no good for keeping the wind out when it is 40ish, lmao!!!

Where is it this year? i'll bring the home on wheels ;)

Taner congrats on the N/A PB!!! You are stocking up on Molsen for the trip right!!! :D
Ok the Shoutout will be a blast once again this year! It's the M6 gearslingers from the Great White North vs. the M6 gearslingers from the Swampland... the two top N/A M6 LT1 guys (Taner & Tim) and the two top N/A M6 LS1 guys (Roman & Jason) all at the same track... new records & PBs will be set for sure! :bow:
I'll try to get these races on video provided that I haven't drank too much (if possible) of Taner's beer. :p Ofcourse I'll have to get footage of Joe just plain smacking EVERYONE N/A, LOL!
Can't wait for this one!!!

Steve... "crew chief" for Tim & Jason, LOL.

How are the mud bugs down there in redneckville this time of year anyway?

I might would like to show up too... but only if Steve cooks up some mud bugs to serve with Taner's Molson. :cool:

You guys get to have all the fun damnit....

-Mindgame

I didnt think they were in season in November? Crawfish and beer go down great together, beats track food :)

The bugs won't be back in season till after the 1st of the year. Don't worry... we have PLENTY of other good food to eat... it all goes good with Taner's beer, LOL!
Make the trip down in November if you can, I guarantee it will be well worth the trip. :thumb:
Steve...

you guys slay me..actually i will be picking the beer up all at the border! keep in mind i get to bring the empties back, lmao!!!! it'll probably be a record of sorts at the beer store. :D

...keep in mind i get to bring the empties back, lmao!!!! it'll probably be a record of sorts at the beer store. :D
If you bring ALL the "empties" from the Shootout back... you're welcome to them, but you better be driving a Peterbuilt with a BIG A$$ trailer! Once the party cranks up at the motorhome the track's bar tends to shut down since we have all the entertainment, LOL. ;)

no no no just the empties that come down full with me! lol!
